The popularity of Diesel cars are increasing among mid-size car buyers lately. In the year 07-08 almost all mid-size car makers have reported 60-70 percent of total sales being diesel cars. Car manufacturers Ford, Hyundai, Mahindra Renault and Mitsubishi have reported that diesel cars form a bulk of the demand.
If the trend continues at the same pace, diesel cars could form 50 percent of the total cars sold in
This is because diesel technology has gone through several changes in the last couple of years. Diesel cars scores high on the fuel efficiency and emission parameters than petrol cars. Also, diesel cars give better running cost. With these differences, the petrol cars are likely to loose popularity. Even European countries are slowly inclining towards diesel cars. Cheaper mode of transport and easy affordability will be the prime factors for choosing a car in the years to come.

I lover diesel cars too. Great mileage and less pollution. I'm waiting for great diesel cars to come from Mercedes-Benz.
I never knew that diesel cars outweighed petrol ones in such large numbers. I think it is partly due to the improved diesel technology which has reduced emission to the level of petrol cars.
And cheaper running add to its merits. The day is not far when diesel will fuel 90 percent of cars across the world. Affordability is the key factor.
It is true that diesel cars have good mileage but recently i heard that they are spit out more poisonous smoke than the petrol cars. Now is it a truth or a myth?
I personally prefer diesel cars as they have a good mileage than the petrol version and they are spit out less pollution too.But the only disadvantage i see in them is their maintenance.
